Title: Entiat Deer opener
Post by: vandeman17 on August 30, 2013, 09:36:00 AM: Anybody going to be hunting above Entiat this weekend? I will probably get out and about and away from the holiday weekend mayhem. If you are going and have been before, how busy is it in there this weekend? I am worried that the combination of hunters and campers might make it a little crazy. :yike:

I am using this weekend as a "maybe I will get lucky" but more to get my legs, back and senses all tuned up for our trip to Oregon for elk in two weeks. :IBCOOL:

Post by: gasman on August 30, 2013, 08:18:29 PM: I was up there a few years ago on Labor day weekend with my daughter, and there was hardly any one up around Mud or Potato creek, but like I said, it was a few years ago. Most people were further up in the unit.

I got it them each morning and evening but no bucks. I had a few chances to shoot a doe but didn't want to burn my tag that early and when it was that warm.

Oh nice. You were up at elk camp huh? I can't say anything but good things about them too. Great guys and a lot of fun to hunt with.

We are getting stoked. I started the packing process last night and will continue tonight and tomorrow night. Leaving Friday about mid day.
